I'd like to have a public room for users, and a private room for contributors. IRC is generally out, as I'd like to have history (and not require going to a separate bot website to browse it). Slack is basically out for the same reason, as they limit the history on their free tier and don't offer free plans for OSS. I'm thinking maybe Gitter? Does anybody have a better option?

I have only used Gitter once very briefly but it looks legit enough to me.

Most of my experience is with Campfire/Slack, but Gitter looks cool. Is HipChat still a thing?

I use hipchat, slack and flowdock. Flowdock is by far my favorite but I am not sure about its guarantee of history.

A lot of folks on twitter recommended gitter, and it looks like the best option ATM. I've set up a public room here. If you're a committer to the project, you've been added to a private room as well.
